Chandra OCR 2 vs HunyuanOCR 1.5

Chandra OCR 2 33

Model card 8, Intended use and the languages (over 90) are on the card. Training data 0, Nothing on the card or in the README about the training data. Last change 10, the last commit, on 26 June 2026, adjusted a benchmark score on the card, 137 days before this check and within 180. Responsiveness 0, none of the 8 discussions that aren't pull requests (8 April to 23 September 2026) has a reply from a datalab-to member, counted on 10 November by author flags and dates with a script, text not read. Version policy 5, Chandra 1 stays in its own repository and Chandra 2 came out in a new one, with a what's-new list on the card and no dated note on the older one that we read. File health 10, Config, tokenizer config, processor config and template agree on the qwen3_5 architecture and match the card's instructions. 8 + 0 + 10 + 0 + 5 + 10 = 33.

HunyuanOCR 1.5 48

Model card 8, Intended use, the architecture by reference to 1.0's unchanged backbone, and the context (128K) are on the card. Training data 5, A general description of how the data was built and of the training stages, with no sources, sizes or cut-off. Last change 15, the last commit, on 28 August 2026, changed config.json, 74 days before this check and within 90. Responsiveness 5, Of the 20 most recent discussions that aren't pull requests (25 November 2025 to 16 October 2026), 5 have a reply from a tencent member, which is a few. Version policy 5, Version 1.5 replaced 1.0 at the root of the same repository. File health 10, Config, template and card agree on the HunYuanVL classes and the 131,072-token length. 8 + 5 + 15 + 5 + 5 + 10 = 48.

Chandra OCR 2 70

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (7,622 characters), Qwen 3.5's template, with a copy in tokenizer_config.json. Tool-calling format 25, Read for a document parser as what it takes and returns. Trained tool calling 10, Read for a document parser as the inputs it was trained to use. Structured output 15, Read for a document parser as typed outputs. Reasoning control 0, A document parser run without reasoning. Context 0, Datalab states no context length for it. 20 + 25 + 10 + 15 + 0 + 0 = 70.

HunyuanOCR 1.5 80

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (930 characters). Tool-calling format 25, Read for a document parser as what it takes and returns. Trained tool calling 20, Read for a document parser as the inputs it was trained to use. Structured output 5, Read for a document parser as typed outputs. Reasoning control 0, A document parser with no reasoning. Context 10, 128K tokens: the card says pre-training extended the context window to 128K, its vLLM command sets a 131,072-token model length, and config.json gives the language model 131,072 positions. 20 + 25 + 20 + 5 + 0 + 10 = 80.

Memory 30, the only build from Datalab is the BF16 safetensors file, 10.59 GB, and 10.59 GB × 1.2 = 12.7 GB, within 16 GB. No runtime library has a build. Runtimes 15, the architecture is Qwen3_5ForConditionalGeneration, which vLLM 0.33.0, SGLang 0.5.23 and Transformers 5.22.2 run from the safetensors file, three at 5 each. Builds 0, Datalab publishes the BF16 weights only for this model. Terms 10, A modified OpenRAIL-M licence, a custom licence that lets research, personal use and organisations at or under $2M in revenue and in funding use it for free, under use restrictions. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 0, Hugging Face maps no inference provider to it. 30 + 15 + 0 + 10 + 10 + 0 = 65.

Memory 30, the only build from Tencent is the BF16 safetensors file at the root, 2.24 GB, and 2.24 GB × 1.2 = 2.7 GB, within 16 GB. ggml-org's GGUF (Q8_0 0.58 GB with a 0.73 GB projector) dates from 21 May 2026 and wasn't matched to version 1.5. Runtimes 15, Released Transformers 5.22.2 has the hunyuan_vl model, vLLM 0.33.0 registers HunYuanVLForConditionalGeneration, and llama.cpp b12242 has the architecture, which the card says the community build runs after conversion. Builds 0, Tencent publishes the BF16 weights only and tells users to convert to GGUF themselves. Terms 5, A custom licence that allows free commercial use under a use policy and below 100 million monthly active users, but not for anyone: it doesn't apply in the European Union, the United Kingdom or South Korea. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 0, Hugging Face maps no inference provider to it, and the card names no Tencent API that serves it. 30 + 15 + 0 + 5 + 10 + 0 = 60.
